SteelSeries is bringing together durable, high-end technology into the ultra-lightweight form factor, built from the ground up for performance through speed.

For the first time, gamers won’t have to sacrifice build quality or performance to get a mouse that is incredibly light.”

The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless features an ultra-lightweight 66g design, perfectly optimized for the fastest mouse swipes. It sports the latest PixArt sensor, the TrueMove Air, and true 1-to-1 tracking sensor designed specifically for wireless performance. This 18,000 CPI, 400IPS, 40G Pixart optical sensor delivers the speed, consistency and accuracy required from a wireless gaming mouse. The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless features the AquaBarrier Technology and an IP54 rating, providing superb resistance against water, dust, dirt, oil, and others. The mouse uses the new Quantum 2.0 Wireless technology with dual wireless offering 2.4GHz wireless USB and Bluetooth connections. The Aerox 3 Wireless offers up to 200 hours of battery life in Bluetooth and 80+ hours in 2.4GHz wireless.

SteelSeries Aerox 3
The SteelSeries Aerox 3 shares many of the same features as the Aerox 3 Wireless, including the IP54 water and dust resistance, holey design inspired by the popular Rival 3, Super Mesh Cable, PTFE Glide Skates, three-zone RGB lighting, and USB-C cable customization. However, there are some key differences between the two.

It is a custom 8,500 CPI, 300 IPS, 35G optical sensor co-designed with PixArt specifically for performance. Because the Aerox 3 is a wired mouse, SteelSeries also managed to lower the weight even further to 57g.

Super mesh USB-C detachable cable for less drag
PTFE glide skates for silky-smooth mouse movements
Pixel-perfect TrueMove Core optical gaming sensor
